View 9 Repliesfor my latest task at work, oh what joy, i have to create a small banner thing which reads data from a text file... BUT... it only reads from the text file IF there is a text file present which i labeled TODAYS date!
Get todays date IF there is a file present in a certain directory which is called todays date.txt (ie. 02042006) then it reads the info in that text file and prints it into a certain area in the flash file. If there is nothing present it just displays the default stuff!!
I've got the following script working correctly. When button1 is clicked it populates a list with XML driven items. When each list item is selected the description is presented in a text area.
I'm having trouble however, with playing a specific FLV when the item is clicked in the list. I can get it to work by specifying a specific vid.source = ("http......") by I need each item to play a different FLV.
button1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,play1);
lb.setStyle("contentPadding", 0);
function play1(e:Event):void {
var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();

Lets say i had an animation and i also had four buttons. The animation would have 4 frame labels at different areas of the timeline. For example:
"Label 1" "Label 2" "Label 3" "Label 4"
now if i'm on the "Label 1" frame and i hit button 3. I'd like to have the animation play until it reaches "Label 3". Also if I were at "Label 4" and hit button 1, I would want it to play backwards to "Label 1" OR maybe it could either play through to the end and loop back depending on which way is closer.
I don't know if this is really possible. I know each labeled frame would require a stop() action, but i'm not sure how to make something play until it reaches a specified destination frame.
I am using the following actionscript to load a external swf. I would like to actually start playing that movie at a specific location based on what is already loaded. I am using this tutorial here. what I want but basically lets say I have three swf's. A, B, C.
If I go from A to B I use this AS
Code:
B_bt.onRelease = function() {
if (_root.currMovie == undefined) {
_root.currMovie = "B"; container.loadMovie("B.swf");
} else if (_root.currMovie != "B") {

I am making a simple application, 4 pages of information with the navigation buttons in a bar along the bottom of all four pages. (easy right!)
My problem is, i won't the information (pics,videos etc) to animate into each page when selected.
I can make them animate in by using the gotoAndPlay () method. BUT when i do this it just loops through all the remaining pages till the end.
gotoAndStop () doesn't play the animations, but the navigation works find.
I am doing a presentation in flash in movie languages I have 7 buttons when some body click button 1 it should go to a new movie called animate frame number 2 when some body click button 2 in movie language it should go to movie animate frame 6 if people click button 3 in language movie it should play movie animate frame 11 like that for all 7 buttons I have used the following code but its always going and stopping at frame number 1 in animate movie
Here is the code:
button 2
on (release) {
unloadMovie
loadMovieNum ("animate.swf", 6);
}
button 3
on (release) {
unloadMovie
loadMovieNum ("animate.swf", 11);
}
I have a movieclip that is comprised of multiple images.These images are used as the backdrops of various different pages of my portfolio.Every image is in a specific order, so if the user decides to go from page 1 to page 4, it will pan through the first three pages quickly before stopping on the 4th page. Simple Enough.The problem is I want them to be able to also do this while manipulating the timeline in reverse. So say if they're on page 4 and want to go back to page 2, it will 'rewind' the timeline and stop on page 2.know there are plenty of tutorials out on how to play a timeline in reverse, however none of which discuss stopping automatically when reaching a certain point that is before the beginning

View 5 RepliesI've compiled an MTS video into MP4 format using FFMPEG. The video is 2 minutes long.
I want to be able to play the video back but start at 0:15 seconds and end at 0:45 seconds. Effectively I want the playback software to only show 30 seconds of playback available. The software must be a Flash-based application for integration into HTML.
I need a Flash player which can start my mp3 file from a specific time based on the embedding properties or on URL or just anything.

View 1 RepliesI was thinking that it may be possible to create a primitive, yet usable actionscript based text to speech system for Flash movies (One that is platform independent).
Is it possible to right a series of actionscript commands that would play a collection of certain sound files based on what word or words the user has entered?
For example:
If the user types "Red Pen"
Can actionscript tear apart those two words and play sound files "Arr", "ee", "Dee", "Pee", "ee" and "EN"?
If it is possible, and if someone could help me out on it, then I'll start figuring out what phonetic sounds I'll need to record and program, and see if I can't build a simple text to speech program for flash movies.I have no immediate commercial application for it, and I don't plan on one.So if I can pull it off it'll be free to everyone, source code and all. Of course, it may be in my voice, but it shouldn't be hard to take what I plan to do and use it as a template for anyone else's voice recordings.
How does one Compare Dates, as in
If (sampleDate is before TodaysDate) {
do something
}elseif (sampleDate is after TodaysDate) {
do something else
}
Whats the best way to receive AMF dates? The queue is an array of vo objects, and some testing vars.
My VO
public var itemID:uint;
public var itemSource:String;
public var itemCategory:String;
public var itemTitle:String;
public var dateString:String;

View 1 RepliesI'm working on an application that stores conferences with their start and end date. Up until now, I was developing in Belgium and my server is in France, so everything is in the same timezone, no problem. But today, I'm in San Francisco, my server is in France and I noticed I have a bug.I'm setting dates from a Flex client (ActionScript automatically adapts date display according to client local timezone, which is GMT-8 for me today. My server runs on Hibernate and MySQL in France (GMT+1). So when I look at my database using phpMyAdmin, I see a date set to "2010-06-07 00:00:01" but in my Flex client it displays "2010-06-06 15:00:01".
Ultimately, what I want is that the dates are displayed in the local timezone of the event, which is the date I set it to. So when I'm in Belgium and I set the start date of an event to be "2010-06-07 00:00:01" I want to retrieve it that way.But I'm lost as to what layer adapts what. Is timezone stored in DATETIME MySQL columns (I can't see it in MySQL)? Does Hibernate to anything to it when it transfers it to java.lang.Date that has Timezone information?
I need to set a chart to start at midnight of the current day and end just before midnight of the next day
I'm trying to do something like this:minChartDate = currentDate.fullYear,currentDate.month,currentDate.date,0,0,0,0;
where currentDate:Date; is the day currently selected. I'm getting an implicit coercion error between the Number to Date type, as if currentDate.fullYear is a Date, but according to the documentation it should be a number. Or is my syntax defining this incorrect? Also wondering if there's a simpler way to get the min and max dates than this (the reason I am setting this is so that it starts at midnight rather than at the first data point in the series).
I'm also getting a weird error 'maximum' values of type Date cannot be represented in text.. it said I need a Date type object for the minimum and maximum so I'm really not sure what it's talking about...
I have dates in JSON which are generated from ASP.NET pages using the JSON.NET library. [code]...
How do I parse these with ActionScript from Flex 3 Professional? I'd like to have this in a native data format.
I use this script currently to determine the difference between two dates:
[Code]...
The problem with this is I want to monitor the actual physical day change so if someone accessed the application at 11:59 PM and then came back 5 minutes later this would register as a 1 day difference (a new day), this current script requires atleast 12 hours to have passed between two dates for it to register as a new day.
I have thought about using the date number etc, but because months and years are so different it is quite a complex route, there must be something simpler.
I have a small problem with my script, and its due to the dates in the array. I have tried writing the dates in a different way, and that works well. However I need the dates as they are now, because of an other function later on.[code]...
View 1 Repliesi want to create a calculater that can add scores from a scale of 1 to 10.for example, if the player gets between 0-3, he gets a point
-between 4-7, he gets 2 points
-between 8-12, he gets 3 points
when this is complete, the points are added up, depending on what the player gets, for example he scores between 4-7 and between 8-12, he gets gets 5 pionts. i can get them to add the points, but not when its between a certain value

I understand that one can use local-specific ResourceBundles in combination with DateFormatters to format dates according to locale. However this is a manual process - is there an automatic way to do this or to set a default for the application?
In Java for example, all your dates will automatically appear in dd/mm/yy or mm/dd/yy format simply by setting the locale. In Flex, a default date output will always be in US format unless manually formatted otherwise. I'm looking for a way to get closer to the Java functionality.
